CISA Adds Five Known Exploited Vulnerabilities to Catalog – CISA
[[{“value”:”
CISA has added five new vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, based on evidence of active exploitation.
- CVE-2021-26086 Atlassian Jira Server and Data Center Path Traversal Vulnerability
- CVE-2014-2120 Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability
- CVE-2021-41277 Metabase GeoJSON API Local File Inclusion Vulnerability
- CVE-2024-43451 Microsoft Windows NTLMv2 Hash Disclosure Spoofing Vulnerability
- CVE-2024-49039 Microsoft Windows Task Scheduler Privilege Escalation Vulnerability
These types of vulnerabilities are frequent attack vectors for malicious cyber actors and pose significant risks to the federal enterprise.
Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities established the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog as a living list of known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) that carry significant risk to the federal enterprise. BOD 22-01 requires Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies to remediate identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect FCEB networks against active threats. See the BOD 22-01 Fact Sheet for more information.
Although BOD 22-01 only applies to FCEB agencies, CISA strongly urges all organizations to reduce their exposure to cyberattacks by prioritizing timely remediation of Catalog vulnerabilities as part of their vulnerability management practice. CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria.
